| - I came here last night for a UYE. Had I come here on my own, and ordered what I did, I would give 2 stars, I've had better. But since I got to see many cool Yelpers and meet some new ones, I'll bump up one star.
I started with a horchata drink. I usually love horchata. Theirs was lacking. It wasn't terrible but it wasn't great. *sigh*
I ordered the holdgepodge, which consists of truffle tater tots, sweet potato fries, regular fries and onion rings. I LOVE onion rings. They are my favorite fried dish. These were not good. Soggy and no flavor. *another sigh*. The truffle tater tots were outstanding. I really liked those. The sweet potato fries were delicious as well. Regular fries were lacking.
The calamari was not good at all. *sigh #3* The waiter said they were out of it and then asked the chef and he said they had one left. SCORE!!!! (or so I thought) They were tasteless and extremely greasy. The "cocktail" sauce didnt add any punch whatsoever. That was a HUGE disappointment. The waiter noticed I didn't eat any of it, and gave apologies.
The standout was the signapore salad. Cute setup. They serve it in a mason jar, which is put on top of a bowl with tamarind dressing in a plastic container on top of that. Way cute! (see pic). The salad was cold and delicious, the dressing fantastic. The description said stir fried veggies but mine had none. I was gonna ask waiter but he seemed overwhelmed by our party of 20.
I had a great time but really wished the food was better. Unless someone has another UYE here, I wont go back. It's way to far from my house for food that is just not good.
Service was Ok, prices were OK, but when compared to quality, I felt it was pretty pricey.
